Registrations for Common Admissions Test (CAT) 2013, the doorway to the prestigious IIMs and many other B-schools in the country, will start from August 5. CAT aspirants can buy online vouchers directly from the CAT Website. The vouchers are also available through Axis Bank branches and this year 30 more branches have been added.

CAT will be conducted over a period of 20 days starting from October 16 to November 11.

This year Prometric has added a few more centres to the list making the total to 40. The new centres to be added are : Surat, Udaipur, Trivandrum and Vijayawada. Seeing the lousy placements in the IIMs this year, there are speculations that there will be lesser number of takers for the test, only time will tell how many takers CAT gets.

There has been no mention about the pattern of the CAT so we assume it will be similar to the last year.
